[PLUG] KDE on Fedora Core 3 Question - Continued

[William A Morita]

Tried the changing the setting in /etc/sysconfig/desktop as specified.
Note that there was not an entry for DISPLAYMANAGER in the file.
Adding one had the described effect.  
One issue though.  I could not log in as root. I had to switch to a text
console to login as root.

I do not find an entry "switchdesk" under "Applications->Preferences->More
Preferences"  The FC3 load selection was for workstation.

The GUI for switching an individual user account to a different desktop is
"switchdesk" on FC3.  The rpm is named the same. 
Applications->Preferences->More Preferences->Desktop Switching Tool
should get you the same thing.

If you want to change it system-wide you'll have to follow Fedor's 
suggestion (change /etc/sysconfig/desktop).
